The Pevensie children along with Veronica entered the house. As soon as they walked in they could see sculptures here and there, paintings of ages past, and suits of armor during medieval times.
-"Well Susan, looks like you will like this place, it seems like its made for you" Veronica joked. Susan however gave her a sarcastic glare. Along the way Peter and Veronica would pass glances at each other trying to hold back their laughs. Now and then Mrs.Macready would say something and the two couldn't help but laugh. Mrs.Macready however would 'shh' them sometimes whenever they laughed to hard. In the next five minutes Veronica grew extremely tired from all the walking.
-"How much further, Mrs.Macready?" she asked sorely. Mrs.Macready however took no notice in the question. They reached the stairs shortly after, only to be stopped by the Macready(What the five called her).
-" Professor Kirke is not accustomed to having children in his house. And as such, there are a few rules we need to follow…" Susan and Veronica glanced at each other with a frown. "There will be no shouting…or running. No improper use of the dumbwaiter.—"
Susan saw a bust and decided to touch it to feel the curves but was stopped by an angry Macready. Veronica let out a sigh of boredom and decided to put her hair in a bun. She then followed the others until a picture caught her eye. She looked to see which route the others had taken and then turned her attention to the picture. She hesitated whether to stay longer or go find the others, but something was telling her to stay. " I wonder?"
She pushed a strand of hair that covered her eye behind her ear and then bent closer to the Picture.
-" Why would there be a lamppost in the middle of nowhere?" she mumbled to her self.
The lamppost was in the middle of the woods with snow covered on it, yet the light was still glowing from inside. She then realized the others would be worried that maybe something happened to her if she wasn't with the group. She didn't turn halfway when some thing caught her eye. " What the?" she stared harder in to the picture squinting her eyes. There in the opening of the woods was a lion. " That wasn't there before!" but again to her surprise it spoke " The time has come dear one…When Adams flesh and Adams bones sits at Cair Paravel in throne, the evil time will be over and done."
-" What the? Is there a audio clip here or a button?" Veronica asked looking around for some sort of speaker or stop button. She began to freak out when it continued talking and stared at the picture " The true of Empress of Narnia shall return…when the two sons of Adam, and two daughters of Eve have returned." She began to back away when the lion shook his mane and spoke softly and gentle " Veronica Elaine Watson…do not fear me for I am all that is good…" She stared very hard into the picture when she began to notice everything in it was moving. She stared deeper into the lion's eyes while it spoke " To long have you ran away, but no longer…Take up what you left behind" At this her eyes grew wide and whispered " Impossible… That was not real…that was a dream!" she said to the lion. She wanted no part in what would happen so she shut her eyes tight and then opened them… The Picture was still and there was no lion, She ran off quickly to find the others but dared not to tell the others what took place…
" You two boys will sleep there…. And you two girls will sleep there…Miss. Watson you will sleep here" Macready pointed to a door on the right hand side.
-" Thank you Mrs. Macready" she responded politely.
NIGHT
-"So where have you been?" responded Susan after she and Susan entered Veronicas' Bedroom. "Nowhere." Veronica answered flatly, Susan However raised an eyebrow, "I see…" Veronica began to unpack her things when "oh come on Susan, can't I rest? I think Lucy needs your help unpacking…" Susan looked again at her and then realized she wanted to be alone for a while. " Well I'll see you in the morning. Night." She said as she shut the door behind her. Veronica let herself fall on her bed facing the ceiling… " What a day it has been" Her hair laid spread out from under her and she began to sing a lullaby song, Soon after she got up and walked to her closet, her sky blue dress flowing gracefully behind her. "I think I'll where this." She said to herself. She began to change; she lifted her dress off and tossed it onto the top of the door. As soon as she did that Peter came in
-"Susan, Ed—"
-"PETER!" shrieked Veronica as she hid behind the closet door.
-" Oh my God!" Peter yelped, and then ran outside the room standing on the other side of the door his cheeks now blushing to a hot pink. " I'm Sorry! I thought Susan was still with you!" Peter said quickly, his voice cracking half of the sentence. The door opened to reveal Veronica in a lavender nightgown with her hair resting on her shoulders. She smiled seeing his embarrassment. " Its all right, I forgive you…Susan's with Lucy unpacking next door." Peter stared deep into her eyes, getting lost in the sensation; he walked in and closed the door behind him never breaking eye contact. Veronica bit her lip as Peter began to walk towards her. He stopped right in front of her and held his hand out. There in his hand was the Heart Locket.
-" I want you to have it back…its your only memory of your father right now." He said softly. He walked behind her and lifted her hair…
-"Peter…"she said softly " you should keep it" he didn't listen since by the time she said 'keep it' it was around her neck. She turned gracefully and looked up at him. His cheeks where still pink from moments ago. She didn't care; she placed her hand on the right cheek and rubbed it softly. Closing his Ocean Blue eyes, he let a shiver run down his body. He looked down at her and arched his neck slightly and moved closer to her face.
She mimicked the same thing, but before they could make contact Susan came in….
